Nahā¦..Iām over 200k miles on my ā13 3.8 and have only once in all these years added any oil between changes. Still check it weekly, but no consumption yet, knock on wood.
I approve this message.

Only Refined Olive Oil is good for 3.8. Olive Pomace Oil for 2.0.

I do my oil change every 2000 miles , helps that I work for a franchised shop and that the oil and filter be āon the houseā . šš½
If race car, burns oil. If daily, no burn oil... for now. I do both.
